Year FIVE! What an incredible honor to be able to do this once again. I’ve been working on this release for a longgg time and I’m SO excited for you all to see the video and the events we have coming! This year will be special.
On one hand, it’s special for all the same reasons as before. More sponsors, more money pledged, more awareness, more support. I’ll also be setting out to do the hardest fitness challenge I’ve ever come up with.
On the other hand, this year is special for all the wrong reasons. We’ve recently seen the federal administration cut over $1 billion of USDA funding. This funding supplies crucial support that brings food to schools, food banks, and pantries.
Bellingham Food Bank alone is staring at an estimated loss of $600-$800k in federal support. Combine that with higher food prices and economic uncertainty and it’s easy to see why food insecurity is at an all time high.
My fundraising goal this year is $300,000. Realistically I would love for that number to be closer to $600,000. I’d love for local families that are already struggling to make ends meet not to show up to empty shelves. Hopefully we can get close ❤️
Thank you to everyone who is a part of this. Thank you to everyone of you in advance for donating to the cause. This year I have at least 3 companies matching donations and hopefully a 4th joining soon. That means your $100 donation is going to be stretched to $400-$500 of impact. Let’s do our best to continue to support these businesses that give back.
Also, a huge shout out to Vince Smith for another fantastic video. Please do it the service of watching it from start to finish.
I have plenty more to tell you all, but it’ll have to wait for now. Til then,

Ethan

Some quintessential fall riding getting wet and loose on Gnarstow and at Black Rock.

May have left the weekend with a collarbone and derailleur hangin loose too but could not be more stoked on the features we ticked off and the incredible footage @vincesmith captured.

Hunger vs Hunger: Year 4. Creating change can feel impossible. Yet every single year, Bellingham blows this shit out of the water. This year HVH has THIRTY-TWO SPONSORS! Are you kidding me?! There are multiple companies matching up to FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS! And there are over 10 events set to raise money for the @bellinghamfoodbank

I'll be posting more info on those coming up. Keep your eyes peeled and your calendars free lol.

@vincesmith absolutely crushed this year's promotional video. Please give it a watch. It does a fantastic job capturing the relationships between privilege, responsibility, creating change, and supporting oneanother. Can't thank him enough 🙌

The link to the fundraiser is in my bio. Thank you for your support and I'm unbelievably grateful for everyone involved in this.

Much love,
Ethan
